Girlfriends
Most of us have probably argued with our lovers at some point in the relationship. Although, not very many people write up those arguments in list form and publish them. This guy did. It's surprising how very, very long this list is. (props to symptom)

Get a degree in surfing
According to CNN, you can now get a degree in "Surf Science and Technology" from the University of Plymouth (in England). For just $10,575 a year (if you're not European), you can study surfing at a university level.

No more Puffy
Puff Daddy is loosing the "puffy" part of his name. His new name will be P. Diddy. (Piddy?)

Phoon?
That thing where a person stands on one leg, and pretends to be running ( ) is actually called a “Phoon.” Slightly more worrying than the fact that they actually named this pose, is the fact that there are hundreds of pictures of Phoons online, such as:

• Old man needing help with his Phoon


• Phooning with a dog (it doesn't seem right)


• Muscular Phoon


• Phoon Orgy

A low point for Americo-Canadian relations?
This Sunday on CBC there's going to be a show where Rick Mercer (a Canadian comic) goes to the US and tries to get Americans to believe that we have a black Prime Minister (he's not), a polar bear hunt in Toronto, and that Canada has a national igloo. He also asks Americans whether America should be bombing Saskatchewan ("Absolutely").

This jolly fellow's packin heat

One year down, a million billion to go
It was Pixilated's one year anniversary on Saturday the 24th. Wow.

Pixilated trivia:

• So what was pixilated like back then? Here's pixilated through the ages:
  
  • First design
  
  
  • Second design
  
  
  • Third design
  
  
  • Fourth design


• This is the very first, never before seen post, (before Pixilated even had a design).


• "Pixilated" means to get drunk.


• Over 40,000 visitors. 


• We learnt about weblogging and Blogger through rebekah.org's "blorg"


• Title of the first published post: "Jimmy Stewart's watching you"


• Title of second published post: "Sex!"


• One of Pixilated's original reason for existence was so we could think up witty titles for posts, as well as pull random quotes from pages entirely out of context.


• However, Pixilated's main reason for being, was (and is) to be a momentary diversion from the rest of the day. A brief break before either of us have to go back to work.

Make an easy $10,000
Ok, here's what we do: I introduce you to this guy, then you get all cozy with him. He'll gimmi $10,000 for hooking him up with you, but then you drop his ass, and we split the cash and live like kings.

Survivor II
Half way through Survivor II, and still no dancing? Not likely. Check out the Jeff dance. Also, The Kimmy dance with Jeff singing.

Second in a series
I went to a bar last night. From across the room I saw a girl glancing at me, so I went over and we started talking. After a while we went outside, and kissed. Then I woke up this morning and found she'd given me foot and mouth disease. I feel DuMB.

Help Kraemer find love
Tom Kraemer created a picture of his perfect woman on a computer. While she does not actually exist, he fell in love with her anyway. Now he's asking us, his internet chums, to help him find a real-live girl just like her. See this beauty of a woman here.

'Ello, 'ello, 'ello! Wot's all this then?
I don't really have a sharp eye or anything, but is it me, or does this page (which sells fire engines(!)) look a lot like this page (which sells apples)? I smells a shenanigans a-going on.

Major redesign
Today we totally overhauled Pixilated to make it look better and load faster. We also went and made the archives look prettier. (In case you're new here, this is what it used to look like). Does it look any better now? Tell me what you think

Make your mark
Take a penny, leave a penny. How it works: there are 3 sections: music, video, and images. In each section there are 10 items which you can download. You can also upload something to each section, which will bump the oldest item off the list and replace it with your new item.

Psychic web page
If you want to see a web site that reads your mind, go to Guess the Dictator and/or Television Sit-Com Character. I pretended to be Rachael from Friends, and after asking me only about 700 questions, it guessed correctly. It's like the thing can (very slowly) read my brain.
